Parks McKinney Facials & Waxing 19 South Street, Portland, ME 04101

"Parks makes waxing a personable, low key, easy-going, yet immaculate experience. She is super knowledgeable about skin, always checks in about how you're feeling, and is never in a rush, paying attention to each little detail, a MUST in her line of work. Plus, she has a quiet studio in a nice part of town."

"This woman is a healer! Between her shamanic touch that happens during a facial, or her ability to create a safe and secure space while she is making your hairy patches clear and smooth. She is good humored and very professional. I would choose her, hands down, over any other esthetician in Portland! PLUS she works on men! SO i can send my hairy man friends to her. SHAME FREE! Just saw Parks again, and felt so taken care of. She is aged of a human being and I would basically see her no matter her profession. She is truly present and skilled. A rare find!"

"This was my first time ever waxing and Parks made it so easy. I got a Brazilian and full leg waxing and loved the outcome! She really works with you and talks you through the whole thing. She is very down to earth and personable making the experience not awkward at all and overall enjoyable. She is very knowledgeable and I feel very educated after the fact. I look forward to returning on a regular basis."

"Parks is clearly an expert esthetician. Fast and efficient."

"Parks is a literal brow angel. I moved to Portland a couple of years ago and have yet to find a solid brow tint/wax. I arrived at this appointment with minor anxiety and hoping for the best brows possible. Parks listened and offered suggestions, even taking off the bare minimum (I prefer fuller/natural looking brows..), asking my opinion before taking off more. I left with natural full looking brows. Highly recommended!"
